Alright, my car has been in need of some new brakes for a while now, I figure it's time I get some in, especially since my uncle who is coming out for christmas said he would help me install them. Anyway, I want to go with a cross-drilled or a drilled and slotted rotor. I saw the drilled/slotted rotors on nopi, but they're pretty expensive. I also saw some on irotors.com that were only $229 for the front and back. (plus an extra $50 for zinc plating on them, but I figure that that is only for rust protection, and since I live in cali, rusting rotors really isn't a problem. so I shouldn't need the zinc plating, right?) so, does anyone know if they are any good?
And I don't know what kind of pads to get. I've heard good and bad about EBC greenstuff pads. And I've heard that Hawk pads were pretty good. I want something that can be used on my daily driver, but are an upgrade from stock that will hold up to aggressive braking, and possibly even autocrossing one day. I don't really know the pros/cons of ceramics vs. regular pads so I don't know which I need. thanks in advance for any help! -------------------- ![]() 94 GT - Sold -------- 69 Pontiac Lemans - Sold 88 Alltrac - Sold ---- 04 WRX - Sold 00 GT-S - Sold ------ 91 Miata - project/drift car 95 GT - Sold -------- 96 GT - New Daily Drive |

alright! I sent an e-mail to the irotors company, they replied the next day asking for pictures, and when I sent them some, they replied telling me that they were going to arrange for DHL to pick up the bad rotors from my house and that they were going to send a new set within 5 business days... so, I'm not gonna knock irotors yet. they do seem to have good customer service at least.
